So, I've been working on this new version of the mindreader. I am developing for a fully assembled version, but the PCB is pretty accommodating for hand smt assembly. Notably, you novice / expert DIY folks.

Most Resistors and capacitors 0603 sized. (a couple are 0805)
ICs are very manageable being SOIC sized.
Pots, jacks, connectors, and LEDs are through-hole.
Multiple PCB test points for probing signals throughout the signal path.
Optimized input/output voltages for eurorack.

An easy fix yeah, but annoying. Yes, there will be reverse voltage input protection.

There are a few changes, mostly to ease calibration. Because this is being designed for quantity, this is necessary. There are a few part changes incorporated that make voltages a little more Euro friendly.

No really major design changes though.

Yes. The CV offset give a a wider range of adjust-ability now.

There's a few threads here in the Muffs DIY section. I'll dig up the links.
In the meantime, here's a little video I did a while back.
